When Two Girls Go Car Shopping

Yesterday, Uju and I went to the car dealership to purchase a car for her. She had been looking for a car forever, so yesterday, we went to check one out, all the way in Rockville. I wasn't even home from work yet when she called me and asked if I could accompany her. I did not know the location of the dealership, but I agreed to go with her.

Real Or Fake: Mariann Gavelo’s Onion Booty!

Real Or Fake: Mariann Gavelo’s Onion Booty!

I don't think I have ever understood the concept of the onion booty as much as Mariann Gavelo's onion booty. It looks like a damn onion!

Lately, I have been visiting the skin care aisle at Walmart way too many times. I don't know what exactly I am looking for, but I hope that when I find it, I recognize it. If not for anything, I have come to find out that visiting the skin care aisle, especially at Walmart is not friendly to your wallet. Yes, Walmart does sell for less, and that's exactly why you end up buying more. But let's focus on St. Ives. I've been reading a lot of labels, and I find myself more attracted to the natural Read More

How NOT To E-mail Bloggers

I've been blogging for seven years, and one of the things that have been consistent, even long before social media, is e-mail. Bloggers have to have a way to contact and be contacted. Now, I realize that my list may not apply to every blogger, but I'm sure that most bloggers can identify. 7 things you do, but should really stop doing when you  e-mail bloggers (especially me): 1.  You address me as "Dear Blogger" 2.  You refer to my blog as "your media platform" 3.  You don't Read More
